Rangers will host Motherwell at Ibrox on Wednesday (December 28) in the Scottish Premiership.
The hosts have had an overall solid league campaign but have fallen behind in the title race, prompting the dismissal of manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst. Rangers have begun life positively under new boss Michael Beale, most recently picking up a 1-0 win over Ross County, via a first-half strike from John Lundstram. Rangers are second in the league table with 42 points from 18 games. They're nine points behind Celtic at the top of the pile.
Motherwell, meanwhile, have endured a rather difficult campaign after a decent start to their season. They played out a 2-2 draw against ten-man Kilmarnock last time out. Motherwell will be gutted not to have come away with all three points after squandering a two-goal lead in the final 15 minutes despite having a numerical advantage.
The visitors are ninth in the league table, with just 18 points from 17 games.
